Playboy launches exotic India Bunny



For all my male friends who have been lusting about Playboy India bunnies, this post is dedicated to you all. Think Playboy, and the first thought would be about wild, raunchy, alcohol-laced parties with pretty women and desirous men. Right? Well, wrong.

The brand Playboy is a big player in the entertainment and hospitality industry. And not the magazine, but the apparel and fashion brand has forayed into the India market. My excited friend says, "Not the magazine? What a bummer."

INDIA-INSPIRED BUNNY: It was tough for Playboy Bunny to look sensuous and yet not get too provocative for the Indian market. So, Andhraiite designer Mohini Tadikonda based in New York used her design sensibilities and ushered a clearly great Indian saree-inspired bunny outfit. Lo! The Indian bunny is exotic and yet not raunchy. Kudos to Mohini!

PLAYBOY APPAREL: Dressed to the T, Mathrew Nordy (standing in the middle in pic below) is the Executive VP and Chief Revenue Officer of Playboy Enterprises. His tie, his impeccable cool black shoes were all Playboy apparel. And with his boyish smile and good clothes, the look was an instant hit. The India entry party at Novotel, Mumbai was a super hit. Actor Akshay Kumar was the biggest star there (in the main leading pic) and many others followed by from fashion, entertainment and media fields.





Girl with the Blue Scarf says: With the first Playboy restobar to open in Candolim Goa in January 2013, Playboy is going to take over Gen-Y in India. If the price points are sensible and quality is great, we have a winner in our hands. Thanks Hugh Hefner! (Just wondering, if Hugh Marston Hefner, the American magazine publisher, as well as the founder and chief creative officer of Playboy Enterprises has ever been with an Indian girl...).

When a man makes an indecent proposal..to a man

The 'casting couch' is serious trouble for male models in India The Casting Couch is a reality. Not just for female models but also the males in India’s buzzing fashion industry. In a quest to make it big, acquire fame, money and a high-profile lifestyle, many male models face the rude reality of ‘talent hunts’ under the guise of ramp show auditions. While many such auditions are genuine, others are ‘indecent proposals’ or a fast dial way to make it on the ramp for big designers and then to the silver screen. Incidentally, under the scanner of late is model Sid Gupta (name changed) , assistant director in a recent Shah Rukh Khan film, who was given a shot on the ramp to open and close the KJo-Varun Bahl’s menswear show in Delhi and the India Couture Week in Mumbai. Fashion circles in both cities are abuzz with rumours about he being a toyboy for his godfather. Not just him, in the recent past model Inder Bajwa and then Lalit Trehan were rumoured to have been the boyfriends of d

Allah tero naam. Ishwar tero naam at Jodhpur RIFF changed my perspective.... Indian Carnatic music maestro TM Krishna collaborates with transwomen singers at the Jodhpur RIFF 2017 This was my very first visit to Jodhpur and I coincided it with an attempt to catch the Rajasthan International Folk Festival (RIFF) whose chief patron is Marwar's royalty Gaj Singh II. One of the renditions by Carnatic music maestro TM Krishna (TMK - as he is lovingly called) changed my life's perspective so much so that this feeling is here to stay and share. TMK sang a very popular song called 'Allah Tero Naam. Ishwar Tero Naam...' with a 'specific reason' as he perched effortlessly at the break of dawn at  Jaswant Thada near Mehrangarh Fort. With him were the absolute delights of the season — The  Jogappa singers. These transwomen musicians were clad in simple sarees, played traditional instruments and sang at an unusually shrill high pitch.  Music legend TM Kri
